A Beautiful Sunset

Tonight I watched the sunset from the Santa Monica pier. The past week has been really rainy, but it cleared up today to leave us with a gorgeous view. I could see clear across the bay to Catalina Island and beyond. The pier was jam packed at sunset, yet strangely quiet. Everyone was mesmerized by the orange sun sinking into the navy blue water and the only sound was a violinist performing a hauntingly beautiful tune. I felt a sense of camaraderie with the crowd, as if we were all silently asking each other, “How did we get so lucky to live in a place like this?”

I hope you are able find beauty around you this long weekend friends. Have a good one.

Welcome friends

Thanks for stopping by my little corner of the internet. I'm an American currently teaching English in Germany. When not writing, you can find me reheating stale cups of coffee at my desk or rereading one of my favorite books for the twelth time...
